    Timestamps w/ quick summary (in progress)
    *0:54** - Phantom Block Reverse (PBR - kind of B-Rev./more on turnaround, but can aerial attack out)*
    2:37 - PBR combos/uses (bair & fair instances, and their purpose, including mixups)
    *8:37** - No Impact Land (NIL - jumping and landing on a block at the right height without land impact/lag to perform inputs faster; must practice block placement, jump heights and timing)*
    9:23 - NIL terminology
    10:34 - Battlefield/platform instance uses of NIL
    *11:28 - NIL combos introduction
    *12:38 - 2 & 3 block NIL info (important, 2 NIL especially to understand block placement)
    13:32 - 2 NIL no DI combos
    14:43 - 3 NIL no DI combos
    16:41 - Different NIL combos (mixup of 1, 2, 3 & 4 NIL + some PBR)
    *17:47 - more NIL block placement advice
    18:06 - off-stage NIL block placement alternatives of Up-smash (due to block placement more shortened duration than placed above stage)
    *19:32 - NIL combos + DI (information)
    20:08 - Up-air vs. Up-tilt
    20:52 - Combo varies on different weight-list characters (e.g: Fox is heavy)
    *21:47** - Mine Block Cancel (mine the block you’re on to dispel it quicker; more options for Steve like safer moves/shield pressure, etc.)*

    • @KlayTheCow
      @KlayTheCow 2 роки тому

      Some things ESAM mentioned in the video like the repeater block combo are no longer viable as they have been patched or different materials of the tools having different knockback/percentages, so I haven’t included specific timestamps like those. I don’t want to be long with these quick summaries too, so I didn’t include frame data for stuff like NIL block placements. I will fix these timestamps so it’s more organized. These should be enough imo.

    blocks are actually frame 4 when steve is falling. they are f6 when rising/ or when snapped to the block grid (like for example when performing NIL)
    EDIT: This is why it may be harder for you to PBR when falling, after all you do have 2 less frames to work with

    Steve is by far the hardest character to master IMO. Kazuya’s a close second, but at least with him you only have to figure out one frame-perfect input with EWGF. With Steve, you have to master like 15 frame-perfect inputs just for *one* combo.
